SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill guides researchers from a vague idea to a practical, repeatable discovery workflow, reducing setup friction and accelerating initial results.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided discovery setup: asks structured questions to define focus, keywords, sources, and schedule.
  • Iterative testing & refinement: runs a test discovery, analyzes results, and suggests targeted adjustments.
  • Ready-to-run workflow: produces a testable discovery configuration and a clear refinement path for rapid deployment.
  • Use Case: A researcher starts with a broad interest like "AI in healthcare," answers three questions, runs a quick discovery test, and iteratively tightens scope until a reliable stream of relevant papers emerges.

Quick Start

Start a discovery session by answering the three questions:

  1. What is your research focus?
  2. How much time can you spend daily or weekly?
  3. Do you want cutting-edge or foundational papers?

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up an automated research discovery workflow?

Research discovery setup configures automated conversations that transform vague research interests into functional paper-discovery workflows. Answer three structured questions about your focus, available time, and paper type preference, then run iterative tests to refine and deploy a working system.

How do I turn a broad research topic into a targeted paper discovery system?

Guided discovery setup asks you to define focus, keywords, sources, and schedule through structured questions. The Skill then generates a testable configuration, runs a diagnostic discovery pass, and suggests targeted refinements until you achieve a reliable stream of relevant papers.

What's the fastest way to get repeatable research results without manual filtering?

This workflow reduces setup friction by providing ready-to-run templates with suggested sources and quality filters. After answering three questions and running one test cycle, you get a tuned discovery configuration and a clear refinement path for immediate deployment.

Can I test and refine my research discovery settings before committing to a schedule?

Yes. The Skill includes iterative testing and refinement: it runs a test discovery, analyzes results, and suggests adjustments. You can tighten scope and filters through multiple cycles until results match your standards before setting a production schedule.

Do I need to know my exact keywords and sources before starting discovery setup?

No. Guided questioning helps you define focus and keywords from a vague idea. The Skill provides suggested source options and diagnostic patterns so you refine them collaboratively during setup rather than requiring them upfront.

What constraints should I know about building a discovery workflow?

The workflow depends on clear answers to focus, time availability, and paper type preference. Results quality improves through iterative refinement; initial discovery may be broad until you apply suggested filters and adjust source coverage.
